Just a short walk from Jonsered, this is a wonderful spot for a swim. There's a small sandy beach, a jetty, and a floating jump platform. A little kiosk sells drinks and snacks on sunny days.

A little higher up is a beautiful shelter. It is a strenuous climb but it is worth it. There are toilets and water taps
